Two new polyketide natural products, globosuxanthone F (1), and 2′-hydroxy bisdechlorogeodin (2), were isolated from the fungus Pleosporales sp. NBUF144, which was derived from a 62 m deep Chalinidae family sponge together with four known metabolites, 3,4-dihydroglobosuxanthone A (3), 8-hydroxy-3-methylxanthone-1-carboxylate (4), crosphaeropsone C (5), and 4-megastigmen-3,9-dione (6). The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D and 2D NMR and high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectra (HRESIMS) data. The absolute configuration of 1 was further established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Compounds 1-5 were evaluated for cytotoxicity towards CCRF-CEM human acute lymphatic leukemia cells, and it was found that 1 had an IC50 value of 0.46 µM.

Eurothiocins C–H (1–6), six unusual thioester-containing benzoate derivatives, were isolated from the deep-sea-derived fungus Talaromyces indigoticus FS688 together with a known analogue eurothiocin A (7). Their structures were elucidated through spectroscopic analysis and the absolute configurations were determined by X-ray diffraction and ECD calculations. In addition, compound 1 exhibited significant inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase with an IC50 value of 5.4 μM, while compounds 4 and 5 showed moderate effects with IC50 values of 33.6 and 72.1 μM, respectively. A preliminary structure–activity relationship is discussed and a docking analysis was performed.

The chemical investigation of a methanol extract of the deep-sea-derived fungus Diaporthe longicolla FS429 led to the isolation of two novel diterpenoids longidiacids A and B (1 and 2), two new polyketides (3 and 4), two new cytochalasin analogues longichalasins A and B (6 and 8) and three known analogues 5, 7, 9. Their structures were elucidated through comprehensive spectroscopic analysis, while the absolute configurations were established by the comparison of the experimental and quantum chemical calculated ECD spectra. The structure of compound 7 was confirmed through X-ray diffraction for the first time. In the bioassays compound 8 exhibited antiproliferative effects against SF-268, with an IC50 value of 16.44 μM. Moreover, compounds 1 and 8 were detected to inhibit 35.4% and 53.5% of enzyme activity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis protein tyrosine phosphatase B (MptpB) at a concentration of 50 μM.

Four novel bioactive tetrahydroanthra-γ-pyrone compounds, shellmycin A–D (1–4), were isolated from the marine Streptomyces sp. shell-016 derived from a shell sediment sample collected from Binzhou Shell Dike Island and Wetland National Nature Reserve, China. The structures of these four compounds were established by interpretation of 1D and 2D NMR and HR-MS data, in which the absolute configuration of 1 was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction, and compound 3 and 4 are a pair of stereoisomers. Compound 1–4 exhibited cytotoxic activity against five cancer cell lines with the IC50 value from 0.69 μM to 26.3 μM. Based on their structure–activity relationship, the putative biosynthetic pathways of these four compounds were also discussed.

Three novel cyclic hexapeptides, sclerotides C–E (1–3), and a new lipodepsipeptide, scopularide I (4), together with a known cyclic hexapeptide sclerotide A (5), were isolated from fermented rice cultures of a soft coral-derived fungus: Aspergillus sclerotiorum SCSIO 41031. The structures of the new peptides were determined by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis, Marfey’s method, ESIMS/MS analysis, and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Scopularide I (4) exhibited acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 15.6 μM, and weak cytotoxicity against the human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line HONE-EBV with IC50 values of 10.1 μM.

Chemical re-examination of the roots of T. calophylla led to the isolation of four isoflavones, namely 2′,4′,5-trihydroxy-6,7-(2″,2″-dimethylchromene)-8-γ,γ-dimethylallylisoflavone (1a, auriculatin), 2′,5-dihydroxy-6,7-(2″,2″-dimethylchromene)-4′-γ,γ-dimethylallyloxyisoflavone (2a, isoauriculatin), 3′,4′,5-trihy-droxy-6,7-(2″,2″-dimethylchromene)-8-γ,γ-dimethylallylisoflavone (1b, auriculasin), and 3′,5-dihydroxy-6,7-(2″,2″-dimethylchromene)-4′-γ,γ-dimethylallyl-oxyisoflavone (2b, isoauriculasin). Auriculasin and isoauriculasin are reported for the first time with full NMR assignments. All metabolites were fully characterized by 1D and 2D NMR techniques including COSY, HSQC, HMBC experiments, mass spectra and in part on the basis of X-ray diffraction. Accurate ‘invariom’ refinements with aspherical scattering factors were carried out for 1a, 1b and 2a.

In this work, the reactivity of 5-bromo-1,1,1-trifluoro-4-methoxypent-3-en-2-one toward primary aliphatic amines was studied. The reaction was found to be extremely selective to synthesize a series of 1-alkyl-4-aminoalkyl-2-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrroles (13 examples, at yields up to 90%) and a series of highly functionalized β-enaminones (6 examples, at yields up to 78%), with only the amount of amine and the reaction condition needing to be controlled. The structure of the products was unambiguously determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and 2D NMR experiments.

The stems of Bursera multijuga afforded (-)-(1 S,3 E,7 R,8 R,11 E)-7,8-epoxycembra-3,11-dien-1-ol (1) and its acetate 2, together with cembrene A (3), nephthenol (4), and cembrenol (5). The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR, HRESIMS, and X-ray diffraction. The conformational preference of flexible 1 was studied by molecular modeling at the DFT B3LYP/DGDZVP level of theory. Good agreement between calculated and experimental vibrational circular dichroism curves established the absolute configuration of 1. This is the first time that cembrane derivatives have been isolated from the genus Bursera.

Two symmetrical dibenzoquinone derivatives were isolated from solid cultures of the fungus Acremonium cavaraeanum. Compound 1 was new and identified as 2,7-dihydroxy-3,6,9-trimethyl-9 H-xanthene-1,4,5,8-tetraone. Compound 2 was 3,3’,6,6’-tetrahydroxy-4,4’-dimethyl-1,1’-bi- p-benzoquinone, i.e. oosporein, which was reported from A. cavaraeanum for the first time. The structure of the dibenzoquinone (1) was unambiguously elucidated using a combination of MS, IR, 1D- and 2D-NMR, and the dibenzoquinone (2) was further determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Two new isodaucane-type sesquiterpenoids, namely (1R,4S,5S,6R,7S,10R)-isodauc-6,7,10-triol, C15H28O3, (1), and (1R,4S,5S,6S,7S,10R)-isodauc-6,7,10-triol, (2), and a new eudesmane-type sesquiterpenoid, 1β,4β,5α-trihydroxyeudesmane, (3), were obtained from the rhizomes of homalomena occulta with the aid of column chromatography. Their structures were elucidated based on extensive spectroscopic analyses, including 1D NMR, 2D NMR and HRESIMS. The structure of (1) was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and the absolute configuration was assigned with respect to that of the precursor. The single-crystal structure reveals that adjacent molecules of (1) embrace through two groups of intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bonds to generate a two-dimensional sheet with a 63-net topology. The three compounds were evaluated for their activity against lipopolysaccharide-induced production of nitrogen oxide (NO) in RAW 264.7 cells, and (1) showed an inhibitory effect on NO production, with IC50 values of 5.7±0.22 µM.
